The Hushed Casket was founded in 2002 shortly after the launch of the XBOX console. Today the Hushed Casket is a thriving community of gamers, playing together and publishing news and stories that have appeared in major media properties like Newsweek, G4TV, USA Today, and Penny Arcade. Some game developers have even referenced our guides and news to support their gamers. We don't play Halo. We LAN Halo.

100 Free Microsoft Points

Submitted by D15AV0W3D on Fri, 07/11/2008 - 10:54am.

1. Go to the website: http://www.dreamcarchallenge.com/main/Default.aspx
2. Hit the Enter Challenge button on the right of the page.
3. Just hit "Next Step" on the bottom right, until you reach the end (or you can take the time and customize the car if you want...)
4. Fill in your info on that next page, IMPORTANT, here is where you select your option to receive the Free points!
5. Make sure you check the 3rd box from the top that says "Yes, I would like to receive Microsoft Points by participating in this promotion. Tell me more about Microsoft Points."
6. Submit your entry and wait for the email with your point code.
7. You can go to http://points.microsoft.com/ and add the points there without having to sign-in to your xbox live.

I've tried this and it works. People have said they can do it multiple times, by changing the email address. If you've got multiple email accounts, then it's worth a shot. I've only done it once so far. Email w/ promotional code arrived instantly.

Tried it a second time, and 2nd code did NOT work: points.microsoft.com gave me an error saying, "You have already entered in the maximum number of points for this promotion."

100 was the limit for me.

Mintz, are you getting: "A problem has occurred while processing your request. Please try again later."? Or are you not getting the email?

If the former, try again later. It should go through (did for me). If the latter, check your Spam folder.

Wish I had gotten in on this when it started, apparently some folks got it to work multiple times on one XBL account before Microsoft noticed it and fixed it.

Yeah, I got the "try again later message." I just tried it now and it worked. Thanks, Josh!

I also got the "You already redeemed points" message, as well.
